And… we’re back to the Dark Avengers. It was a nice break at least. Thanks for posting the thread, looking forward to the two Vulture covers for Progression.

3

Anyone know why nodes for this event would produce a timer after only 1 play, if even that? I have a couple I’ve yet to play that have timers on them, until full points available.

4

If they’re the nodes with the option to use loaner characters, that’s standard. Annoying, but expected.

If it’s not a loaner node, try closing the game completely and then re-opening it. I sometimes have weirdness like that when I go from my home to my work wi-fi and vice versa.

5

My God.
How can you make a 7 day event even worse?
Why, you add a million one time nodes to the main on the final day of course!

6

I always think I’m remembering it as worse than it really is.

Then I discover that the opposite is true.

This is probably the only event I want scrapped. It’s a slog, with no nuance and no redeeming features.

7

I actually like it. Because I don’t mind grinding like this, and enough other people do, it’s one of the few events that I can semi-reliably make t20 (or even once t2) in.
